NextJS handles all the client-side functionalities like: State Management, UI rendering,routing, Caching and so on.
NextJS also handles the server-side developments, such as: Authentication,Server Side Rendering(SSR), CRUD operations,routing, Storage etc. basically all operations you would normally do on the backend which is super-awesome!!!
